Subaru-history
Subaru became part of the car universe in 1953 when Subaru Corporation was founded in Japan.
The name "Subaru" can best be translated into Danish as "to unite". If you've heard of a star cluster, you may also be familiar with the Pleiades, which is a well-known example of a star cluster. If not, a star cluster is simply a collection of stars.
In Japanese astrology, the Pleiades represent rebirth and strength, and "Subaru" is the Japanese name for the Pleiades.
The stars in the logo represent "the six shining units". The five small stars represent the five companies that together form the large sixth star - which was then Fuji Heavy Industries, and today is known as Subaru Corporation.
About the cars themselves
The very first Subaru hit the roads in 1958 and was named the “Subaru 360”. Subaru's unique Boxer engine made its debut in 1966, and the symmetrical all-wheel drive was introduced in 1972.
Today, Subaru is the world's largest manufacturer of all-wheel drive vehicles, with 1 million all-wheel drive cars sold each year.
For Subaru, the most important focus is on high safety, with the goal of building the world's safest cars.
Subaru comes with three fantastic, safe and all-wheel drive cars. A Forester, Outback & Subaru XV. The models have the same high level of safety, and everything is included in all models.
A Subaru always has all-wheel drive. This is primarily what creates the high level of safety. Additionally, it also provides maximum traction capacity, off-road capabilities, and much more.
So, which model should you choose, when all three have the same high level of safety?
Well, your choice basically depends on which of the three models YOU feel most comfortable with and what role it should fulfill in your everyday life.
